A source has now told The New York Post's Page Six that Lucci's existing contract with ABC could see her take on a role in Desperate Housewives later in the year.

While Desperate Housewives begins filming in July and All My Children does not finish until August, the insider claimed that Lucci could rearrange her schedule to film both shows simultaneously for one month.

While a spokesperson for ABC Daytime stated that Lucci "will not be filming Desperate Housewives in July", the actress's rep confirmed that Lucci is considering several offers.
